Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a display device, and more particularly, to a display device that can prevent a short circuit between signal lines. According to an embodiment of the disclosure, a display device comprising: a substrate having a display area and a non-display area; a pixel disposed in the display area; a first driving voltage line connected to the pixel in the display area, and extending to the non-display area; an initialization voltage line connected to the pixel in the display area, extending to the non-display area and overlapping the first driving voltage line in the non-display area; and a dummy line disposed in the non-display area, and overlapping the first driving voltage line.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A display device comprising:
 a substrate having a display area and a non-display area;   a pixel disposed in the display area;   a first driving voltage line connected to the pixel in the display area, and extending to the non-display area;   an initialization voltage line connected to the pixel in the display area, extending to the non-display area and overlapping the first driving voltage line in the non-display area; and   a dummy line disposed in the non-display area, and overlapping the first driving voltage line.   
     
     
         2 . The display device of  claim 1 , wherein the dummy line has a floating state. 
     
     
         3 . The display device of  claim 1 , wherein the dummy line is disposed on a same layer as the initialization voltage line. 
     
     
         4 . The display device of  claim 1 , wherein the first driving voltage line comprises:
 a first lower voltage line disposed on the substrate, and extending in a first direction; and   a first upper voltage line on the first lower voltage line, the first upper voltage line being connected to the first lower voltage line, and extending in a second direction intersecting the first direction.   
     
     
         5 . The display device of  claim 4 , wherein the dummy line overlaps the first upper voltage line. 
     
     
         6 . The display device of  claim 4 , wherein the dummy line is connected to the first lower voltage line. 
     
     
         7 . The display device of  claim 4 , wherein the dummy line is disposed on a same layer as the first lower voltage line. 
     
     
         8 . The display device of  claim 4 , further comprising an insulating layer between the first lower voltage line and the first upper voltage line,
 wherein the dummy line is disposed between the substrate and the insulating layer.   
     
     
         9 . The display device of  claim 1 , wherein the dummy line is disposed adjacent to the initialization voltage line. 
     
     
         10 . The display device of  claim 1 , wherein one end of the dummy line is disposed at one end of the substrate. 
     
     
         11 . The display device of  claim 10 , wherein the one end of the dummy line comprises a carbonized region. 
     
     
         12 . The display device of  claim 1 , wherein the dummy line has a width larger than a width of the initialization voltage line. 
     
     
         13 . The display device of  claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of dummy lines comprising the dummy line. 
     
     
         14 . The display device of  claim 13 , wherein the plurality of dummy lines each overlap the first driving voltage line, and
 the plurality of dummy lines are not connected to each other.   
     
     
         15 . The display device of  claim 1 , further comprising a second driving voltage line overlapping the dummy line and the initialization voltage line in the non-display area. 
     
     
         16 . A display device comprising:
 a substrate having a display area and a non-display area;   a pixel disposed in the display area;   a first driving voltage line disposed in the display area and the non-display area;   an initialization voltage line disposed in the display area and the non-display area, and overlapping the first driving voltage line in the non-display area; and   a dummy line overlapping the first driving voltage line in the non-display area.   
     
     
         17 . The display device of  claim 16 , wherein the dummy line has a floating state. 
     
     
         18 . The display device of  claim 16 , wherein the dummy line is disposed on a same layer as the initialization voltage line. 
     
     
         19 . The display device of  claim 16 , wherein the first driving voltage line comprises:
 a first lower voltage line disposed on the substrate, and extending in a first direction; and   a first upper voltage line on the first lower voltage line, the first upper voltage line being connected to the first lower voltage line, and extending in a second direction intersecting the first direction.   
     
     
         20 . The display device of  claim 19 , wherein the dummy line overlaps the first upper voltage line. 
     
     
         21 . The display device of  claim 19 , wherein the dummy line is connected to the first lower voltage line. 
     
     
         22 . The display device of  claim 19 , wherein the dummy line is disposed on a same layer as the first lower voltage line. 
     
     
         23 . The display device of  claim 19 , further comprising an insulating layer between the first lower voltage line and the first upper voltage line,
 wherein the dummy line is disposed between the substrate and the insulating layer.
